Freedom for the Stallion

Allen Toussaint

Freedom for the stallion
Freedom for the mare and her colt
Freedom for the baby child
Who has not grown old enough to vote

Lord, have mercy, what you going to do
About the people who are prayin' to you?
They got men makin' laws, destroy other men
Make money, God, it's a doggone sin
Oh, Lord, you got to help us find a way

Big ship's a-sailin'
Slaves all chained and bound
Headin' for a brand new land
That someone says he upped and found

Lord, have mercy, what you going to do
About the people who are prayin' to you?
They got men makin' laws that destroy other men
Make money, God, it's a doggone sin
Oh, Lord, you got to help us find a way

Freedom for the stallion (Freedom for the stallion)
Freedom for the mare and her colt (And for the mare and colt)
Freedom for the baby child
Who has not grown old enough to vote

Lord, have mercy, what you going to do
About the people who are prayin' to you?
Well, if I could look inside your mind
Bring back all the truth I find
Oh, Lord, you got to help us find a way

Freedom for the stallion (Freedom, freedom for the stallion)
Freedom for the mare and her colt (And for the mare and colt)
Freedom for the baby child
Who has not grown old enough to vote
Lord, have mercy, what you going to do?
